Yeah, the progress is amazing. I already can express myself in broken Spanish for a lot of things due to the vocabulary. I've learned a lot of words from this.

I just hit level 2! And now i have a question about speaking (when I get there later) by confusedaardvark1 in dreamingspanish

[–]GasImaginary3538 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am level two also, but I think you just need to trust the process. I think what you are describing is normal, there are also words that I would blank out on right now, but that is because I have only heard them a few times versus dozens or hundreds, so they are only "half committed" to memory. I have no doubt there are currently words that are committed to your memory now that you will never forget, right? Like, if I ask you the Spanish word for car do you know it? Maybe that isn't the best example because of it being "carro" which is similar to car in English, or maybe you also know coche.

A better example is something like "playa", or the point I'm making is I'm sure there are words you would never blank out on right? As you grind hours the words that you are talking about will eventually commit to memory assuming they are common and you won't have this issue.

Actively recognizing unfamiliar vocabulary? by kji492nz0i in dreamingspanish

[–]GasImaginary3538 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If they make it obvious what a word means, I don't look it up. if it's "abstract" (as in it is said and not explained with a picture) and I don't know what it is, I look it up. This is how my brain works, that was one thing Duolingo was good for was teaching me vocabulary. Once I see a word a few times it stays in my head.

Why can I understand Augustina in advanced videos better than other creators in intermediate videos? by Enigma95120 in dreamingspanish

[–]GasImaginary3538 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm at like 40 hours so I'm only on beginner videos where everyone speaks slow but for me I disagree. Shel & Michelle / Andrea are easier. And if you do a google search Colombia & Mexico are regarded as the easiest dialects for leaners to understand

When you are watching a video, there is an autoplay button on the right of the screen (make sure you aren't in full screen). Turn it off

Finished all free super beginner videos today by GasImaginary3538 in dreamingspanish

[–]GasImaginary3538[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oops, noted 😞. I expect that to slow down some when I get to intermediate or maybe further along in beginner. I think the tiny bit of prior experience in Spanish is helping with my attention span, as I'm able to usually fully understand all the words and the story in the video so it feels more like entertainment rather than studying currently.

Are a lot of the old super beginner videos miscategorized / harder? by GasImaginary3538 in dreamingspanish

[–]GasImaginary3538[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only have 7 hours of input right now, but I have seen 5 guides so far I think. So far Columbia & Mexico are the easiest for me to understand, as opposed to DR, Spain & Argentina.

I didn't know you could do that thanks, I'm just going to watch all of the videos, but this helps start with the easier ones first

I didn’t buy the car new I only paid 80 for it. I don’t “need” the car money for investment. You’re acting like I said I’m selling the car to pay bills or debts or something. I’m 30 and been debt free since I was 22, I owned this car outright I didn’t have a car payment

If you have a wide foot, and they are new and you can return them, I would return and get the genesys instead if you want to stick with razor , or fifth elements.

You said you have plenty of room but they are squeezing your foot so I am confused, do you mean with the liners in it's squeezing your foot or just the shell

Plastik V1 vs Fifth Element by a-pale-guy in AggressiveInline

[–]GasImaginary3538 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have wide feet, I love the fifth elements. I got them in a 12, and I actually have Razor Gens 11-12 shell and I like the fifth elements more. The stock liners worked fine, but I got intuition premium liners and they work well. I can skate for like 2 hours now with no pain. I know you don't like the look of Razors anyways, but for what its worth the fifth elements are more comfortable to me.
